Tasting Notes

Colour

pale straw

air Nose

not yet a straight peat monster but this has more peat than the OB for sure. Plain seawater, wet wool, smoke (garden bonfire), a little lemon juice, flints, whiffs of wet chalk, oysters, hints of iodine (tincture), muesli… It noses a tad younger than 17 but I really like its ‘naturalness’

restaurant Palate

classic highly peaty, ultra-clean, lemony, zingy, ‘gentianny’, grassy, coastal, salty Ardbeg. Enough said

timer Finish

long, pure Ardbeg. Many oysters in the aftertaste ;-)
